Why is looting so slow/delayed ?

No hate, just curious why looting in Classic is so slow/delayed and if it will get fixed or anything.
Maybe someone does know anything.
Edit: sry thought at first im at the german forums.

Try again in a different language please.

What do you mean by slow/delayed? From the key press to the actual action happens?

Edit: My bad, didnt read the actual title of the post. I havent really thought about it, but i’ll kill some mobs and see if I feel the same

yes from clicking until the items are in your bag. It feels like years pass by that time. It’s definitely different on retail.

Leatrix plus addon has an option to autoloot instantly.
I recommend this addon, its very complete and useful when it comes to small things

I think because of spell batching every action, including looting, has up to 500ms delay. I vaguely remember this being the case in vanilla and TBC. Also note that unofficial servers never implemented this system and can’t be used as reference.

Come to think of it I have had Leatrix plus since release so I guess I’ve dodged this issue

Looting always was a bit slow in Vanilla, also when right clicking the items would sometimes go one by one in your bag.

In Classic tho, with the spell batching system, it feels EVEN SLOWER.

I’ve notived maybe sometimes it takes a second to loot a mob, not the end of the world.

I have found myself going back to the same mob, because it didn’t loot it, but it’s not so bad. I’d prefer that they take care of actual problems instead of this.

This is how the loot system worked back then. It’s just a small delay no big deal.
